Chapter 1172: He Wrote It for Fu Huai’an!
Yun Liuli nodded. The level of trust she had towards Fang Yan was unmatched. “I’ll listen to whatever Sister Yan says.”
“Then… I’ll arrange for a scandal involving you and Fu Tianci. I’m telling you first so that you can be mentally prepared.”
“Scandal? What scandal?” Yun Liuli was puzzled.
“A dating scandal, of course…” Fang Yan chuckled.
Fu Tianci was currently the most attention-grabbing and popular young male artist in their agency. Since she was paving the way for Yun Liuli… she’d be foolish not to make use of her own agency’s resources.
“Sister Yan, I don’t want to get into a relations.h.i.+p scandal with someone else! I already have a partner! I don’t want him to get the wrong idea!” Yun Liuli was very insistent.
“You’re in a relations.h.i.+p? With who?” Fang Yan thought about Zhou Yuchen, the handsome guy she saw at the university’s entrance that morning, and asked nervously, “Is it the male student who was talking to you at the school’s entrance this morning? Does everyone in school know about it?”
Fang Yan didn’t want Yun Liuli to get in a relations.h.i.+p when she was going to debut. She couldn’t bring herself to break up a loving couple, but if Yun Liuli was dating, it definitely wouldn’t bode well for her future career. Artists feared to date the most during the initial and rising stages of their careers. Rumors were nothing, but if their relations.h.i.+ps were exposed, and there was proof of them, that would be the end of their careers. This was especially so since Fang Yan had planned to make Yun Liuli a popular celebrity.
Yun Liuli shook her head and told Fang Yan the truth. “It’s not him. He’s just… a friend! The person I love is attending to some matters overseas, and we may not be able to see each other for a few years! I can’t say anything else…”
Fang Yan sucked in a breath as alarm bells started going off in her head. She held Yun Liuli’s hand, and they sat down along the corridor as she said to Yun Liuli seriously, “If you don’t want to say it, I won’t force you, but you have to remember to be careful. If anyone asks, don’t say that you already have a partner. Before you have a stable position in this industry, your relations.h.i.+p has to be kept secret, got it?”
Yun Liuli nodded.
Although Fang Yan said that, she still planned to come up with a “Relations.h.i.+p Exposure Emergency Plan” on the way back. Otherwise, she’d be unprepared if Yun Liuli’s relations.h.i.+p was suddenly exposed.
On the way home that night, Fang Yan called Lin Nuan and asked her if she knew who Yun Liuli’s boyfriend was so that she could be mentally prepared!
In the end, Lin Nuan didn’t give her any face, saying that since Yun Liuli didn’t want to say anything, she couldn’t go behind her back and expose her secret.
Fang Yan was going crazy!
All these years, pretty much all of Fang Yan’s artists exploded in popularity, and all of her artists listened to her when she was their manager.
But the artists she was currently managing all had their secrets… and all of them didn’t want to tell her the truth.
Over the next few days, while Yun Liuli sat for exams, Fang Yan arranged for people to take profile photos for Yun Liuli and set up social media accounts for her!
Since she hadn’t officially debuted yet, the various official accounts were set up but not activated.
If she didn’t create a scandal, how else was she going to raise Yun Liuli’s popularity? The only other way would be letting Yun Liuli appear in a TV drama or movie…
With her looks, so long as Yun Liuli appeared on TV, she’d leave an impression on others even without any lines.
Then, Fang Yan thought of Fu Tianci!
The MVs for Fu Tianci’s alb.u.m!
Fang Yan’s eyes lit up. She then looked through the songs that Fu Tianci hadn’t already filmed MVs for.
Fang Yan smacked her forehead. Fu Tianci had never dated before, so most of his songs weren’t related to being in love. After some careful thinking, she realized she could only have Yun Liuli appear in the MV for the t.i.tle track, “Fake Aristocrat”. Thank goodness they hadn’t started filming the MV for the song.
Fang Yan previously asked Mr. Chen, the father of pop music, to listen to the song, and he predicted that the song would definitely be a huge hit.
Fang Yan was a woman of action. After liaising with the director of Fu Tianci’s MV, she decided to let Yun Liuli appear in it. She only had one request, and that was for Yun Liuli to look pretty in the MV!
Fang Yan initially suggested that the MV for “Fake Aristocrat” be filmed as a dance song, and Fu Tianci had to learn the ch.o.r.eography as a result. Now, she suddenly wanted a change of plans when Fu Tianci had already learned the ch.o.r.eography…
The director wasn’t surprised. He knew she was making use of her artist to support the newbie, and this tactic was nothing new to him.
Fu Tianci’s eyes widened as he sat by the side. “Sister Yan, aren’t you being too biased? It’s my MV, so shouldn’t I be the one that looks good? Why do we need to make Liuli look pretty? And I already learned the ch.o.r.eography… I won’t agree to this!”
He remembered Yun Liuli as an especially pretty young lady who looked just like a doll!
Fu Tianci’s heart also grew soft when he thought about Yun Liuli’s fair and stunning features.
But the song was Fu Tianci’s baby! How could he let his baby be treated like that?
Fu Tianci’s brows furrowed tightly.
“Then I’ll call Xiao Nuan and let her talk to you…”
Fu Tianci was at a loss for words.
Complaining to Lin Nuan the moment they couldn’t agree on things—how could she be so mean?
Fang Yan got the hang of it now. Fu Tianci would surrender unconditionally every time so long as she got Lin Nuan to talk to him.
“Tianci, it’s not that I’m forcing you to do it my way. You’ve always had your own ideas about how you want your MVs to be filmed. You haven’t thought of how you want the MV for ‘Fake Aristocrat’ to turn out anyway, and previously, I was the one who suggested that you film it as a dance song. I just want to give a different opinion now…”
Fu Tianci propped both of his legs on the table. “No, you don’t!”
Fang Yan disregarded what Fu Tianci said and continued, “The vampire queen and her converted servant. The converted servant falls in love with the vampire queen—what do you think of this concept?”
“But this song isn’t about romantic love. It’s about brotherly love…” Fu Tianci shot back. He argued, “This song is about a vampire king converting a human and teaching him how to be a member of royalty. The vampire king is then touched by the human’s sincerity, and they become good brothers!”
Fu Tianci loved this song, and only he knew that… he wrote it for Fu Huai’an!
The first half of the song was about how they used to interact, and the second half of the song was about how he hoped they would interact in the future!
In Fu Tianci’s heart, Fu Huai’an was the king. Ever since he saw Fu Huai’an, he hoped that he would become his older brother. He looked up to Fu Huai’an and hoped that Fu Huai’an would guide him and that they’d be as close as brothers.
“Trust me. You don’t even have to change the lyrics. If the plot of the MV is a love story, your song will be even more popular!” Fang Yan decided.
“I won’t agree to it!” Fu Tianci insisted. He wrote the song for Fu Huai’an. How could they turn it into a love story?
Fang Yan looked at Fu Tianci and motioned towards his a.s.sistant…
The low and deep sound of the cello could be heard.
It was the intro for “Fake Aristocrat”.
Confused, Fu Tianci looked at Fang Yan.
When the chorus came on, his deep and magnetic voice could be heard. It was soft and sounded so sentimental that it was as if one could hear the sadness of all the people in the world…
“You’re a king, standing tall but all alone, elegantly playing with people’s hearts, dignified and meticulous.”
